Lord, this year bless my family,
not just with food on the table
give them a real good helping
of all things that You are able.
Give them daily provisions,
of hope, mercy and grace
supply them with the strength
for running the faithful race.
Give them eternal patience,
for all the ruts in the road
let them grasp the meaning
of You taking up their load.
Give them daily renewal,
of their mind, heart, soul
fill them with the Holy Spirit
so their lives You can control.
Lord, this year bless my family,
with more than food on the table
may seeking Your perfect will . . .
become their lifelong staple!
~~~~~~~~
1 John 2:16-17
“For all that is in the world,
the lust of the flesh, and the
lust of the eyes, and the pride
of life, is not of the Father,
but is of the world.
And the world passeth away,
and the lust thereof:
but he that doeth the will of God
abideth for ever.”
